Established

The original Hotel Sahara opened on October 7, 1952, as the sixth resort on the Las Vegas Strip. After closing in 2011 and a stint as SLS Las Vegas, the property was purchased by the Meruelo Group and officially renamed SAHARA Las Vegas on August 29, 2019, following more than $150 million in renovations.

About

SAHARA Las Vegas is a boutique-style hotel and casino anchoring the north end of the Las Vegas Strip, owned and operated by the Meruelo Group. It offers over 1,613 guestrooms across three distinctive towers—Blanca, Marra, and Alexandria—each with its own design personality, alongside a nearly 60,000-square-foot casino. The property appeals to guests seeking a more personalized, approachable Strip experience compared to larger mega-resorts.

Local History

In August 1964, the Beatles stayed at the Sahara while performing in Las Vegas; ticket demand was so high that their show had to move to the convention center, making it one of the first arena-scale concerts in Las Vegas history.

Consejo Insider

Insider Tip

Because SAHARA sits at the northern terminus of the Las Vegas Monorail, it is also a convenient free-parking base for exploring the rest of the Strip by rail—park free on-property, then ride the monorail south to reach mid- and south-Strip destinations without Strip traffic.
